“The course was an excellent way to learn how to talk about cancer. I will use lots of the hints and tips given in the course in my work and also in my life away from work. I have learnt that cancer can be discussed at any time with anyone as long as it's done correctly. This has given me the confidence to do this in a way I don't feel awkward or nervous anymore.”– Carol, online course learner
